Loving Care for Your Pets

I’m 35years old and surrounded by animals my entire life. Growing up, my family cared for 5 dogs and 8 cats, which gave me years of hands-on experience and a deep understanding of pet care. Over the years, I’ve also gained valuable knowledge working alongside veterinarians. Currently, I have 3 cats who are back home in Turkey, and I miss them dearly. Caring for animals is not just a job for me—it’s my lifelong passion. I live alone in a clean, quiet, and pet-friendly apartment. While I don’t have a backyard, I do have a balcony and a safe dog-walking area in my complex. I’m flexible with scheduling and available to provide personalized care based on your pet’s needs—whether that’s playtime, companionship, or special attention for senior or shy pets. Since I have no children at home, your pet will receive my full attention and affection. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and peaceful environment where your pets feel comfortable and cared for. I would be honored to give them the same love, respect, and dedication that I give my own animals.

Hande took such good care of our babies. I could tell they loved her by the pictures she sent with them. We have a senior dog and there were some potty issues that she handled very professionally. She took care of our home and was very communicative throughout the whole time we were gone. We will definitely be booking her again when we go out of town.

Safety, trust & environment

My home is clean, quiet, and perfectly suited for pets. I have no children, so your pet will receive my undivided attention. I take extra steps to ensure a safe and peaceful environment, from securing doors and windows to keeping toxic plants and objects out of reach.

A typical day

I love keeping pets happy, active, and mentally stimulated. We’ll enjoy daily walks, playtime, and plenty of cuddle sessions. I like to explore nearby parks, let them sniff and discover new scents, and provide quiet rest time afterward so they feel relaxed and loved.
